Inky purple-black with concentrated aromas of cassis, violet and warm spice. The oak integration is seamless, lending structure without masking Barbera's natural brightness. Muscular tannins give this unexpected gravitas for the variety, balanced by the grape's characteristic zip. A compelling, cellar-worthy bottling that will reward patience through 2018.

Elio Grasso is a benchmark Barolo estate in Monforte d'Alba, farming the Ginestra and Gavarini crus across two generations. The wines are structured, age-worthy, and among the most consistent in the appellation.
